A short experimental docu-voodle! by bk about bk gone - in many ways - popular. There's really no excuse for what he did - except maybe that he didn't cut up and then montages a new... but he did prolong the already long take and he must have done other things to it too... yet if you ask bk about it he persists in this being just another morphology of body and space - captured in Venice - 2008.11.08 - and Kazuki Mishima providing the place.

A Lumierevideo by bk featuring another sentience of a kind; the Venetian window of and in time as the mirror of a consciousness and a culture captured in ... Venice, Italy - 2008.11.07. Principles; fixed camera, handhold, no audio, no zoom, no effects and going on for exactly 60'' (65'' with credits).

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring awareness in time produced and represented through the free and thus mangled reflection on Objects, Connections and Context captured in Bucharest, Romania 2008.11.06 (twice or not). View what is there to be looked at as either a simple story told or a true and complex mash up... but see; what is mangled by Vidian featuring Suzi Q. and Kaer Trouz (all ccMixters) is really putting it all together.

A Lumierevideo by bk featuring nothing less than the elementary or undifferentiated consciousness, a particular readiness to perceive sensations, some sort of faculty through which the external world is apprehended. View the sentience as it was captured through a truly foreign window in Bucharest, Romania 2008.11.06. Principles; fixed camera, handhold, no audio, no zoom, no effects and going on for exactly 60 (65 with credits).

"Four days ago, Oslo started its day by looking at itself covered in fresh snow. It was the first snow at this end of the year. That day it kept snowing until noon. By early afternoon the snow was about to disappear and the colours of autumn did slightly emerge again. They pressed through the vanishing white on the ground. They sparkled against the heavy sky - and indeed the veil of grey that Oslo knows so well, vanished too.

In other parts of the world a place had started its day by looking at itself after a hurricane of some sort just passed by. Noon with its bright daylight is far ahead and the veil of grey sits within the place - is stuck to the place - and there seems to be no melting white. Nothing is vanishing – nothing there to introduce a change.

A voodler captures moments – that’s what she can do. Yet sometimes she forgets to voodle but stands still and numb… because not all the moments can be captured… there are not enough cameras to voodle with and morning, noon and evening happen so fast… some moments remain unspoken and un-voodled.

A voodler captures moments – and she does that every time at least twice." b.k.

About us

‘LOMEG_ROM : voodles on CONTIGUITY’ is an experimental workspace/playground for investigations in the morphology of body and space. The Law of Contiguity (Edwin R. Guthrie, 1886-1959): ‘When two ideas or psychologically perceived events have once occurred in close association, they are likely to occur in close association again, the subsequent occurrence of one tending to elicit the other’, is the inspiration for LOMEG_ROM’s unpretentious visual outbursts or simple video registrations.
LOMEG_ROM is a collaboration between ‘moi’ (the female) and ‘b.k.’ (the male) – both filmmakers and architects sharing the same enthusiasm and interest for perturbative spaces and moving mass, ...or what else life brings on.

The VOODLE term was coined under a daydream workshop in Copenhagen, Denmark, 23. – 25. February 2007. Read here the first description of the voodle – watch here, here, here and here the first ever made voodles - and search here and here for more voodle-theory and voodle-ontology.
